When you kiss the base of my spine

Make my body into your shrine

You give me this feeling deep inside

One that I can no longer disguise

While other snakes just shed their skins

Forked tongues pointing out my sins

Even though I realise that history's not on my side

Even though I realise the pioneer skin still curls up in my eyes



If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind

I saw a life before me but now I'm blind

I wanna go to heaven, never been there before

I wanna go to heaven, so you give me some more



Flying high upon the gallows

Too messed up to step out of the shadows

A drugged up heart that knows no sorrow

Rescued from this deep dark hole

Stick on these boots and sharpen the nails

Time is nigh for you leather girls

Maybe we should end this race

Vanish while we cannot leave no trace



If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind

I saw a life before me, but now I'm blind

See one-arm film stars on alien beaches

Potted gold and tattooed faces

Harrison murals on the corner, tupperware boxes full of hops

Diazepam dreams there catching streams

Paper dinosaurs flash blue and green

Still I've got a flash-bulb head

Still I've got a flash-bulb head



If I don't go crazy, I'll lose my mind

I saw a life before me but now I'm blind

I wanna go to heaven, never been there before

I wanna go to heaven, so you give me some more



Come along nice, come along dead

Scorpio rising, and paint it red

A psychic equalizer in your head

Come along nice, come along dead

Scorpio rising, and paint it red

A psychic equalizer in your head (repeat all)
